Rushing to fill and screw on my first Protank 2...without putting in a coil. Messy.
What's the biggest mistake you made as a newbie vaper

Yup, I know that feeling well. I bought a boat load of juices that I had never tried, based on what they were advertised as, and sure enough I ended up not liking more than half of them. And since I had bought them at a B&M....they weren't cheap.
When I first started dripping, built a beautiful 1.2 coil. Read out perfectly on the display. Wicked my cotton, and a put a few drops on to soak. Then...picked it up, put it to my lips and hit fire. Without putting the top on. That was a hard lesson that I never will repeat...
Yup. Bought a Blu also. In retrospect tho, within a couple of puffs of the Vivid Vanilla juice, I knew I could stop smoking, and damn if they didn't work. Which led to so many other toys and flavors....
God BLESS Blu-cigs.

Thinking that the first thing that came up for me in a search was the best.
Which was a cigalike i thought ok so this must be the latest technology.
Came in here few days later and i was ordering something else that night.

Made a trip to a b&m store , some 40 mile away from me ( at the time I was living in the middle of nowhere) , and forgot them in the car, in the winter, next to a soda can .... by noon on the next day when I remembered to go and fetch them everything had amalgamated and froze so I had to make the trip back to the b&m
Day 1 walking out of a strange B&M in a guy's garage with my first vape, a Nemesis & Russian all built for me and filled and I had NO idea nor instruction as to how to use it, fill it, make coils) with Mother's Milk for a little over $200
Luckily Ed because mine busted the budget got a great lil Aspire & ego 650mah...
going home ordering a "EVOD starter kit" on ebay for myself...
Day 3..filling that little hole down the middle to fill the tank .*rolly eyes*
yeah start googling!!
Day 5 got an egoT & Kanger Pro Tank2...
found ECF! felt even more stupid *lol*

Bought a starter kit from a B&M for ~$70. So mad at myself for that, but I didn't know better.
Buying the Kanger PT3 Mini, when I could have bought the Kanger Aero Mini.
The Aero mini can do everything the PT3 mini does, and if you want a tight pull like the PT3 mini, you can just close down the airflow.

I was thinking that when I was looking at them, and even though the shop had them dirt chesp, I decided I wasn't buying one unless they had SS, ... they had one left, ... MINE!
I purchased my first Evod kit from a local B&M and although I'm a little annoyed that I paid twice as much as it's being sold for online, I'm still glad to have supported a local business. My biggest mistake was the first time I decided to rewick my Kayfun Lite; the tank looked practically empty, so I figured that I would be able to open it up and get to the wick without much of a mess. Didn't consider that in the light I had around me, the full tank of practically clear juice looked empty... 4ml is not much, but it's a much bigger spill than one would think, especially with no paper towels around!
Biggest mistake was buying my first kit before I became a ECF member.
Bought a e-vic and a nautilus mini for 100.
After ECF already bought a big driper, a magma and waiting for a iStick (all for 60)
Meanwhile, I order a DNA 30 clone for 40.
This cost the same as my starter kit, but now I will have 2 awesome setups for the price of a crappy starter kit.
Glad I found ECF

Thinking that I'd be able to get away with a simple cig-a-like and save a ton of money. Yeah right. Been a blast, but expensive.
Just being closed-minded and unadventurous, mostly. I used a 510 cigalike for far too long, about two years ago. Unsurprisingly fell of the wagon, because I either wasn't aware of, or refused to consider, better gear (at least an ego, come on!!).
After falling off the wagon for a year, things are much better 4 months in with better gear! At least I'm having fun now

Bought an 18mg bottle of e-juice. Called the vendor to complain when I received it that they had sent me a 10mg bottle of e-juice. After a lengthy discussion about nicotine, milligrams and milliliters I ordered another 10ml bottle of 18mg e-juice.
My biggest mistake was not doing more research upfront. But the cheap ego starter kit got me hooked. And I too have almost fired a dripper on my lips with no cap!
But so far I would have to say not finding rayon sooner. It has been 4 days since I tasted anything burnt.
